So here are some of my current situations with the truck.
One of the ears is broke off. I have been welding for 24 years so I think I can fabricate another hole and then gusset the axle saddle and not have an issue,If I can't find a replacement. I'm curious if I could use a regular style U bolt and then use a flat plate on top of the springs.
